Case Study: Deutsche Telekom and Gleiss Lutz advance legal collaboration with Harvey

Deutsche Telekom and Gleiss Lutz boost legal work with Harvey, with associates using it 2-3 hours a day

Deutsche Telekom AG, a leading global telecommunications company, faced increasing legal complexity and pressure to move faster without compromising on trust or quality. Their legal team, in collaboration with their law firm Gleiss Lutz, sought to move beyond fragmented tools and parallel workflows to enable deeper, more strategic collaboration. They partnered with the vendor Harvey to implement its AI platform, including its secure Shared Spaces functionality, to create a shared foundation for legal work.

The solution from Harvey provided a secure, encrypted platform hosted in Germany, meeting Deutsche Telekom's rigorous data privacy standards. This enabled both the in-house team and their external counsel to work collaboratively within shared digital spaces, moving away from emails and document versioning. The result was a significant reduction in friction and manual effort, allowing senior lawyers to focus on high-value strategic advice and judgment. Harvey became an indispensable daily tool, with associates using it for several hours each day for drafting, review, and issue spotting, fundamentally improving the efficiency and quality of their legal work.
